The pair are just two of 19 athletes in total - 8 female and 11 male - to be selected for the biggest cycling squad ever.

The cycling events in Dehli are in track and road disciplines and the team will compete in both sprint and endurance events in both disciplines. For the first time ever, both men and women's road race squads will be competing.

James, who will compete in Track Endurance and Road Race, said: "To pull on a Scotland jersey at a major games fills me with an enormous amount of pride. This will be my third games in a row and the main aim is to go one better on the medal front."

Kate, who is also competing in Track Endurance and Road Race, said: "Having already competed at the Commonwealth Games 2006, it's really exciting to be competing again at Dehli. It is a chance to race my hardest with the backing of a team who fully support me.

"I have had so much help and support from Scottish Cycling, clubs, volunteers and riders. When I race for Scotland, I'm not only racing for myself, I am racing for all of those who have helped along the way."
